Offered Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lambeth we are identifying progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly don't turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations rather simply.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank placed at the rear of your garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Lambeth for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Cobham (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Lambeth Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the normal troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Cobham

Testimonies from our Cobham personnel:

We did a wrong fuel retrieval job near a spectacular residential home in Cobham recently. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and managed to virtually arrive at home when my car stopped." Our technician went out, even though it was pretty late at night, and carried out a fuel drain and purge on the Vauxhall to everyone's satisfaction.

Fuel Rescue Cobham - Cobham Petrol in Diesel

This was most definitely an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 3:30am and hardly anyone was around. It had been rather uneventful so far, and me and Paul were sitting around perusing a couple of old newspapers. It was a rare peaceful hour in Lambeth. It was in fact that calm that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist on the opposite end stated: "I finished my evening shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in the diesel Nissan in error". We instructed him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in Cobham only an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the motor and he said thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we found two women on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. So we got out to change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Assist Cobham - Cobham Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing during the weekend and felt satisfied the following day as I set off to aid a new family away in Cobham. They had stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their Peugeot, and the car was close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled as I heard to the wife telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this goes on on a regular basis in Lambeth and that it's nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unfortunate boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what my missus would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
